2019 Impact Report 30Th May – 9Th June 2019 2019 Impact Report 30th May – 9th June 2019 Thy Kingdom Come | Impact Report 2019 1 Trafalgar Square Beacon Event, London Headlines Thy Kingdom Come is a global, ecumenical prayer movement which takes place each year from Ascension to Pentecost. Christians are encouraged to pray for more people to come to faith during these 11 days of prayer. From Bangladesh to Brazil, Australia to Austria and South Africa to the Solomon Islands, more than 2 million Christians, across 65 different denominations and traditions, in 90% of countries worldwide have participated. In 2019 Thy Kingdom Come was endorsed by a range of high-profile leaders, including His Holiness Pope Francis. Her Majesty The Queen also commended Thy Kingdom Come in a speech! This year our app was downloaded thousands of times in almost 100 countries worldwide – more than twice as many as in 2018. In our annual feedback survey, we found that: • 92% of those taking part were praying for friends and family members to come to know Jesus – with nearly two thirds (62%) of this group planning to follow up or talk to the people they were praying for; • 70% of those who took part felt more encouraged to share their faith; • 40% of respondents took part for the first time this year – which shows this is still very much a growing movement; • 99% want to be involved again next year, the same figure as last year – demonstrating growth and value. “ And to you my brothers and sisters, with my brother Justin Welby, we want to tell you that we walk alongisde you in this prayer – Thy Kingdom Come.” -His Holiness, Pope Francis (*172 out of 195 countries.) 2 Thy Kingdom Come | Impact Report 2019 Thy Kingdom Come | Impact Report 2019 3 Prayer Journals, each organisation took part in their own From prayer stations to prayer walking, special joint Across England distinct way.

The Nottingham City Prayer group also organised a night of prayer and worship at the Trent Vineyard Church on 7th June with people from hundreds of churches across the region. The event was attended by more than 1,000 people including nuns who told organisers they rarely leave the convent but made the journey for this special gathering. “It was a catalyst to bring many of the churches in our town and local area to worship and pray together. It helped build unity amongst us.” The pilgrims included representatives from the Diocese of Lichfield, Methodist Church, URC, Baptist Association and the Roman Catholic church. Despite – or maybe because of – the incessant rain on the day, the camaraderie was excellent throughout. Mgr Tim Menezes, Vicar General in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Birmingham, said: "The conversations between sometimes strangers of different Christian traditions, based on reasonable curiosity of how we do things differently, made for an engaging distraction from the steady rainfall throughout most of the walk! We walked and prayed and we were very happy to be part this developing tradition of local pilgrimage. It was moving to ask God’s Blessing on places, people, on industry and on God’s creation which is entrusted to our care and to future generations."

    THE PARISH OF GREAT YARMOUTH Parish Office: GREAT YARMOUTH MINSTER, ST PAUL’S, ST MARY’S The Rectory, Town Wall Rd, Great SUNDAY 28th June 2020 3rd Sunday after Trinity Yarmouth, Norfolk, NR30 1DJ Tel: 01493 858410 There are no public services at the moment. Do make time for your own prayers. [email protected] Remember that although you may be isolated, no Christian is ever alone. www.gtyarmouthminster.org 3rd Sunday after Trinity In today's Gospel reading we hear about welcoming - that with every little welcoming act it is as if we are welcoming Jesus. We've recently been able to welcome visitors and pray-ers back into the Minster, we've welcomed people from around the world to worship with us online; in 'normal' times, we would be welcoming summer visitors to our services, but, of course, everything is a little bit different this year. This weekend would have been the second Great Yarmouth and Waveney Pride event, a chance to celebrate our community, and for those of us who are Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Trans, etc. to welcome the whole community to a celebration of living as one's authentic self. The Gt Yarmouth LGBTQ+ faith group 'Created' were involved last year, and there is usually a Christian/faith presence at Pride celebrations all around the world. People both inside and outside faith communities might find it surprising that those people of faith are involved in Pride, but it actually makes perfect sense. As the 'Created' group's name implies, these are people being fully who God created them to be; knowing that God loves them for who they are, not in spite of it; and wanting other people to know that they are fully known and loved too.
